Recent reviews of Memory Care in Fort Washington, MD
Modena Reserve at Kensington
5.0

I think all 7 categories meet the mark, but they should, since this an upscale facility and more costly than others. The staff is terrific. My wife has difficult Lewy body dementia and the facility does well. I'm happy with it.

Forest Hills of DC in Washington, DC
4.6

My sister has lived at Forest Hills in the Health Care Center for a while. Before the pandemic, they had wonderful activities as well as great nursing care. In the pandemic they have done an incredible job to keep everyone safe, to figure out ways to have safe activities and/or virtual or safe visitation zones (following CDC guidelines). The staff is working under challenging circumstances and they continue to be kind, patient and deliver high quality care. We are so very grateful my sister can live in such a great facility.

Arbor Terrace Senior Living in Lanham, MD
4.8

Right when we walked through the doors on the first day the staff have been nothing but warm and welcoming to our family. They had a nice display out front that was culturally relative. Even though our loved one does not always participate in the activities they do have different things going on. We have recommend Arbor Terrace Senior Living to others and we will continue to do so.
